Lana Del Rey - Maleficent Trailer - 'Once Upon A Dream' (Watch Now!) [+ Review]


Gosh, guys. We need someone to sing the version of classic 'Once Upon A Dream' for our trailer. Who shall we get? 'How about Lana Del Rey?' This is how I would imagine the teams over at Disney went around choosing an artist to sing this iconic song. And, in case you are sitting at home asking yourself 'Lana Del Who?', then you should probably go and google it. Yep, that's right - sultry singer Lana Del Rey has teamed up with the Maleficent movie to sing a rendition of the classical sweet 'Once Upon A Dream'. Except in this version, it's not so sweet and a whole heap of haunting. Watch the trailer for Maleficent below, featuring Lana's vocals: 




If Del Rey's vocal appearance in the trailer wasn't enough for you, we get a nice sneaky peek of how deliciously divine Angelina Jolie is at playing Maleficent. The trailer possesses such an eerie quality and is so enthralling that it's making us want to hibernate all the way until May, when we can get to see it. Jolie airs her naughty side in the trailer; complete with bewitching smile and psychotic laugh, it puts all the critics to shame. The pairing of Del Rey + Jolie in this trailer is perfection and puts a disturbing spin (get it - spinning wheel) on the tale. Mark May 30th in your calendars ladies and gentleman, as it is sure to be a intriguingly wicked ride.

Sherlock - Series 3 Review


Also, here is another review I wrote specifically for the on-line version, about the series 3 of Sherlock and the final episode which aired on Sunday 12th January in the UK. There was a whole lot of craziness - so it's worth checking out the review (which doesn't contain any major 'spoilers', if you like).
